In the last several years, there has been a dramatic increase in the separation of family members who arrive together seeking protection at the southern U.S. border. Although DHS Sec. Kelly recently reversed his stance on formalizing a policy of family separation at the border, service providers continue to identify cases in which separation occurs. Family separation can take many forms - whether children from parents, spouses or siblings from one another, and more - but the process of locating and reuniting separated family members, as well as ensuring they can still access legal protection, is universally complicated. This webinar is specifically intended for legal and social service providers working with unaccompanied children or detained adults who may encounter family members separated at the border. The presentation will cover topics such as steps to take to try to locate or facilitate reunification of separated family members as well as legal strategies and filing complaints in family separation cases.
